    Right now the source is hosted under v.reddit.it. is there a mirror we can link to or use?

    Reddit being reddit can quickly get rid of that video. And removing that dependency would be so nice.

      I don’t like or trust reddit either. I post videos like this as I find them to the Fediverse as soon as I can.

      I found it at that URL in the source, however I posted the video to Mastodon. For this post, the video link is coming from the Mastodon post.

      I only include the place where I found it just incase it can help give some context to others.

        I fund uploading video to Mastodon to work really well because you can easily share it right on Mastodon.

        Catbox.moe is great though

      It’s a shame we would only make an example of these dimwits who fail aptitude tests at alarming rates. If they could read they would know the Nuremberg trails weren’t kind of brown shirts who were just following orders. I only hope we reserve the same treatment for the people running the show.

    As someone who lives near Portland, the fact that Portland police even testified about excessive force means it’s bad.

      Seriously, the whole reason the right is obsessed with Portland now is that the Portland police used incredible levels of excessive force to put down BLM protests. And since they believe the police are always in the right, then Portland must be a hellhole. I used to live in one of the smaller towns in Oregon and mentioning that I went up to Portland for a day would typically result in someone telling me I was lucky I wasn’t shot. Never mind that the PPB is so brutal that the federal government sued them for excessive force back in 2012. To unfortunately minimal effect. That you can be too brutal for Portland police is just insane.

      I mean, they clearly just tackle a guy from behind out of nowhere. A guy who’s minding his own businesses and just standing there in the least threatening manner possible.

      Also very revealing that they specifically target the guy wearing hippie-looking clothes, most likely because they associate that with left wing ideology and their remit is to remove “undesirables” regardless of whether or not they’re a threat to anyone.

      So yeah, this is so blatant that it’s frankly not surprising that even the fascist PPD consider it beyond the pale/giving away the game.

        They’d lose their minds at Becky’s Drive-in. During the labor day movie marathon, they sell tie-dyed t-shirts. Tons of people are wearing them. They wouldn’t be able to figure out whose rights to violate first.

        I’m kidding of course. They’d be outnumbered, so they’d just run away.

        I’m curious to know what he’s holding, and tried to retrieve. Looks a bit like a speaker or something. I wonder if that played a part in this. I’m not saying it’s justified in anyway, just curious to know what it is.

        Because retribution. Because escalation. Because they have more and bigger guns. Because violence begets violence. Because losing the battle means you get tortured to death. Because conspiracies get infiltrated. Because they still have the support of a third of Americans. Because gunfights in the streets have collateral damage. Because gunshot injuries hurt. Because they come back next time with tanks. Because we have to go to work. Because a civil war will kill millions. Because cameras will ID you and they will come for your family.

            Yes. Immediately.

            But I don’t make the decision for everyone. Their reasons for resistance to civil war are listed above. And doing it solo is suicide with extra steps. Society as a whole has to get there together. And a third of Americans support the Nazis. And the propaganda apparatus is in full force keeping many others misinformed.

    [serious question]

    What is the government suggesting is the justification for this particular abuse of power?

    I know it’s bullshit. I’m just curious what bullshit they’re using for this.

        A lot of people forget that our country was founded on gunning down our oppressors and those that stood with them. They think we’re above it now, and haven’t realized that that mentality has specifically been instilled in us over several generations by our new oppressors. Violent actions of the past are seen as justified and heroic, while violent actions of the future are seen as unjustified and barbaric.

            I assume you’re referring to the King, who was obviously safe across the ocean, though if he’d been within reach during the revolution he’d certainly have been a target. Regardless, those who stood with him, such as Butler’s Rangers, were certainly among the oppressors as well, and many were indeed gunned down in battle, or after the war was won if they didn’t either flee to Canada or change their loyalty to the people of the new country.

          All of us connecting better with other people in our towns/cities/states/countries online and in-person will mean bigger collective strength and power for the people

          With that it would mean more coordination and significantly less deaths if and when we get to that point as well. Would be better to fight alongside all of you altogether than individually
